Some days all you want to do when you get home is make a cup of tea, curl up on the couch, and snuggle into a cozy spot to watch a movie. Luckily you can add a little magic to your night in with these great products from the DisneyStore.com.

The perfect cup of tea is a never ending quest for lovers of the jade green leaf. Now, true tea aficionados have a place to call home in Disney Springs at the Tea Traders Cafe' by Joffrey's. Disney fans are already familiar with the Joffery's company for their coffee, but few knew until now that they're also "purveyors of premium loose-leaf teas custom blended to captivate your senses."

Eating your way around World Showcase is a popular way to spend the day during the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, but if you've missed this year's event - never fear - you can snack your way through the park all year long. The counter service restaurant located throughout the eleven international pavilions are more than enough to treat a hungry traveler to an exotic buffet that takes all day long to experience.

If you are planning on being in Walt Disney World over Mother's Day, don't forget to treat Mom to something special while you're touring. There are lots of ways that you can show her how much she means while still enjoying a fun family vacation.

I'm not sure what I love more about this charming little spot is. It's got the perfect atmosphere for an afternoon break, there's a feeling of warmth that you find down at your community bookstore combined with some beautiful Disney merchandise, and some of the best snacks in all of Walt Disney World.

China is may be one of the most beautiful stops on a tour around World Showcase. Guests can often meet Mulan and Mushu near the large Chinese Gate that beckons them further into the pavilion. The tranquil garden courtyard sits in a quiet beauty and guests are drawn through it to the magnificent three-tiered Hall of Prayer.

One of my favorite spots to stop and shop while touring Epcot is the Twinings Tea Shop located in the United Kingdom Pavilion. I know I can buy Twinings at home, but something about the charming thatched roof and cottage atmosphere just makes buying my tea at Epcot just that much more wonderful.

Recently, I had the opportunity to take in a day at Epcot's International Flower and Garden Festival. One of the biggest and most anticipated annual events held at Walt Disney World, the Flower and Garden Festival, which is co-sponsored by HGTV, boasts acres and acres of gorgeous blooms, more than 75 Disney character topiaries and other special displays, and scores of seminars and chats.
